Born in Hartford, Connecticut, Frederic Church became a leading figure
in the Hudson River School* of painters, and in the 1850s and 60s was
one of America's most famous painters. The paintings for which he
became known were landscapes conveying a serene sense of light and
space, showing nature in its pure state without the presence of human
beings.
